Supernormal functioning in actors.
Wagner, James Louis.

Supernormal functioning in actors. - 198 p.

Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 74-12(E), Section: A.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--California Institute of Integral Studies, 2013.

This inquiry sought to answer the question, "Do professional actors experience supernormal functioning in their work?" Relevant subquestions included "What specific types and subtypes of supernormal capacities do professional actors develop and use?" and "What causes and sustains supernormal functioning in professional actors?" This thesis concludes and argues that supernormal functioning is, in fact, an integral and essential component of actors' work across cultures and pedagogies.

520 $a This inquiry sought to answer the question, "Do professional actors experience supernormal functioning in their work?" Relevant subquestions included "What specific types and subtypes of supernormal capacities do professional actors develop and use?" and "What causes and sustains supernormal functioning in professional actors?" This thesis concludes and argues that supernormal functioning is, in fact, an integral and essential component of actors' work across cultures and pedagogies.
520 $a Using narrative interviews with experienced actors who were also experienced spiritual practitioners this study identifies various specific categories of supernormal functioning, as well as some of the causes of, and blocks to, sustained access to these supernormal capacities. Using semi-structured interviews to explicate narratives relative to this inquiry, this study developed ten short case studies. Participants were working professional actors who had received at least 3 years of formal training in acting technique and had participated in some form of long term (five years or more) transformative practice.
520 $a By situating the data analysis within an integral epistemology, the thesis offers a meta-pedagogical framework which can assist individual actors, teachers, and training programs in developing modular integrative practices towards sustained access to supernormal capacities in performance.
